Applying to programs that help with medical bills, nutrition assistance, prescription medications, and other necessities can be challenging.  

Fortunately, Independence Blue Cross (IBX) is working with Uno Health (Uno) to make it easier for you to apply for Pennsylvania state and federal financial assistance programs.   

Just how much can Uno save you? On average, Uno helps eligible members save $4,500 per year. And as an IBX Medicare Advantage member, you have access to Uno’s services at no cost. 

Uno can help you find out if you qualify for any of the following programs: 

  • Medicaid. Pay as little as $0 on medical bills, and get $0 copays.
  • Medicare Savings Program (MSP). Get up to $203 per month back in your Social Security check.
  • Supplemental Nutrition Assistance (SNAP). Get up to $298 per month to spend on groceries.

How Uno works 

  1. Answer a few questions, and Uno will let you know which programs you qualify for and what you could save.  
  2. Easily upload documents to enroll in savings programs.  
  3. Once your documents are submitted, you may start seeing savings within one month!
